Again, that's for upstream.
Yes, however it would be great if you could file bugs/patches and or
work with upstream to include those tools into their QA procedures.
Hmmm... QA procedures... they have unit tests, that's the QA...
See above : upstream has its own build system...
Switching to a more standard build system would be nice.
I had proposed an autotools-based system, but they didn't like it...
$ pep8 --ignore W191 .
That's for upstream, isn't it?
Yes. pep8 is just a style checker so if they don't want to use
standard formatting that is fine.
Ok.
maybe recreate during build?
Hmmm... the source appears to be the .svg ; I don't think I ship it in the
-doc package, so I don't think I should care. I'm not sure I'm eager to put
my hand in their doc-building yet...
Perhaps file a bug upstream asking to remove them from the
VCS/tarballs and always build them from the source?
I don't think they change the .svg that often, so not including its
conversions in the tarball would mean a new dep for arb which they don't
want.
